  •  They've just emailed to terminate my variable rate. They don't understand what a variable rate is, do they?! They prefer to create a new rate than actually vary the one I'm on!
    I've had the same at least we have until 31st March but no guarantee more cheaper tariffs wont be pulled before that date

    Seems the pricing has gone up with Symbio recently, Reef is almost the same price, any suggestions anyone? South East Variable rate ends next month, wish I fixed in at 9.9p cost previously!
    Same here that 9.9p looked a cracking deal
    Whoops!!!!!

    If you lock in now to a variable, you can still change it using the same link up until the 31st if a cheaper one comes along... Its something I have been doing not sure if its intentional or not lol

    I do like the way that they torture the English language in their emails.

    I'm also on tariff number three, it's not really variable in the normal sense of the word, but still the cheapest by some way for me for electric only.

    The standing charge has also dropped to about £0.16 from £0.22 benefitting low users. 
  • I switched to Symbio, mainly because of the prices, and had a terrible experience with them. I have endured months of incompetence, misinformation and lack of communication between their departments.

    Too much detail? LOL

    They have departments. Here or in India?

  • The different departments are probably two separate desks in a small room. :D
